I am also incredibly bored with football until the seasons starts so this is my thesis for the summer lol Great thesis! I really wish someone like Sully or Tim Graham would write a book on the drought years, revealing all the truth of what happened behind the scenes. That would be a most epic read.

Agreed I would be really curious to hear some of the behind the scenes stuff especially from 2013-2016 where leaks happened ALL the time and you know different agenda's were clashing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Romes Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 This was the year that wannesdtadt proved that the game can totally pass a respected coach by. We gave up 1200 yards in a two game stretch maybe an nfl record. Pettine turned the same players into a top tier unit a year later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep the hype coming in for the defense was understood given the talent and Dave's track record. Once the season started it was like a different universe. I've always believed if Chan could've found a better defensive coordinator he probably would've lasted longer, those defenses from 2010-2012 were so bad and even when talent added it didn't move the needle.

I would like a chapter on Bledsoe & the 2004 Steelers game. I’d also like to read about stuff like Ralph mandating the 4th-round draft pick of Dwayne Wright in 2007. But yeah, all the Brandon-Whaley stories would be gold. License to print money, John Warrow! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
